As life goes on I'm starting to learn more and more about responsibilityI realize everything I do is affecting the people around meSo I want to take this time out and apologize for things I have doneAnd things that have not occurred yetAnd the things they don't want to take responsibility for

I'm sorry for the times I left you homeI was on the road and you were aloneI'm sorry for the times that I had to goI'm sorry for the fact that I did not knowThat you were sitting home just wishing weCould go back to when it was just you and meI'm sorry for the times I would neglectI'm sorry for the times I disrespect

I'm sorry for the wrong things that I've doneI'm sorry I'm not always there for my sonsI'm sorry for the fact that I am not awareThat you can't sleep at night when I am not thereBecause I am in the streets like everydaySorry for the things that I did not sayLike how you are the best thing in my worldAnd how I am so proud to call you my girl

[Bridge]I understand that there are some problemsAnd I am not too blind to knowAll the pain you kept inside youEven though you might not showIf I can't apologize for being wrongThen it's just a shame on meI'll be the reason for your pain and you can put the blame on me

[Chorus]You can put the blame on me [4x]Said you can put the blame on me [3x]You can put the blame on me

Sorry for the things that he put you throughAnd all the times you didn't know what to doSorry that you had to go and sell those packsJust trying to stay busy till you heard from DadAnd you would rather be home with all your kidsAs one big family with love and blissAnd even though Pops treated us like kings

He got a second wife and you didn't agreeHe got up and left you there all aloneI'm sorry that you had to do it on your ownI'm sorry that I went and added to your griefI'm sorry that your son was once a thiefI'm sorry that I grew up way too fastI wish I would've listened and not be so badI'm sorry your life turned out this wayI'm sorry the FEDS came and took me away

[Bridge]

I'm sorry that it took so long to seeThey were dead wrong trying to put it on meI'm sorry that it took so long to speakBut I was on tour with Gwen StefaniI'm sorry for the hand that she was dealtFor the embarrassment that she feltJust a little young girl trying to have funHer daddy should never let her out that youngI'm sorry for Club Zen getting shut downI hope they manage better next time aroundHow was I to know she was underageEnter 21 you know the club they sayWhy doesn't anybody wanna take blameVerizon back out disgracing my nameI'm just a singer trying to entertainBecause I love my fans I'll take that blameEven though the blame's on you [3x]I'll take that blame from you

And you can put that blame on me [2x]You can put that blame on meAnd you can put that blame on me
